Bobbi Brown Old Hollywood Eye Palette Review

Sunday, December 15, 2013

Earlier this year I was lucky enough to meet up with the UK Bobbi Brown team and get a sneak peek of the upcoming Christmas collection. One product I knew had to mine on the spot was the Bobbi Brown Old Hollywood palette - nine almost neutral shades that are not old perfect for everyday wear but thanks to a few glitter shades suited for the festive season too.

The packaging isn't quite as glamorous as the shades held within but it does wipe clean rather well, holds a great sized mirror, a decent enough brush and is fairly robust. You can't really ask for more - I mean even Chanel use plastic for their cosmetic casings.

The shades inside the Bobbi Brown Old Hollywood Eye Palette are:

Ivory - matte off white, very weakly pigmented but can be layered on.

Golden Pink - warm true bronze, despite being glitter based it has a soft texture but again not the best pigmented.

I have to be truthful and say that this is not the best Bobbi Brown palette I have bought in the last year or so, most of the eyeshadows lack high levels of pigmentation which is a little disappointing considering the £59 price tag. Ouch!

The colours are really beautiful! Shame the quality is so bad. I'll stick to playing with my Naked 3 Palette for now then! Would love a post on your top eyeshadow palettes if you get a moment? :) Chelsey x

The shades look so gorgeous! It's a shame about the pigmentation :(If that had been higher it would have been one of the most perfect neutral palettes out there!The Blushing Giraffe| The Blog Lovingxxx
